What is Computer Science ?

Computer Science develops students’ computational and critical thinking skills and shows them how to create, not simply use, new technologies. This fundamental knowledge is needed to prepare students for the 21st century, regardless of their ultimate field of study or occupation.

Computer science is a liberal art, it’s something that everyone should be exposed to, everybody should have a mastery of to some extent. -- Steve Jobs

Additional Background: Computer science education encompasses “the study of computers and algorithmic processes, including their principles, their hardware and software designs, their applications, and their impact on society.” A few of the topics and activities that might be included in a computer science course include:
